LIGHTING THE BURNERS
To ignite the burner, the following instruc-
tions are to be followed:
1.
Press in the corresponding knob and
turn counter-clockwise to the full flame
position marked by the
(fig. 3.1) and hold the knob in until the
flame has been lit.
In the case of a mains failure light the
burner with a match or lighted taper.
2.
Wait for about ten seconds after the
gas burner has been lit before letting
go of the knob (valve activation delay).
3.
Adjust the gas valve to the desired po-
sition.
If the burner flame should go out for some
reason, the safety valve will automatically
stop the gas flow.
To re-light the burner, return the knob to
the closed
position, wait for at least
1 minute and then repeat the lighting pro-
cedure.
If your local gas supply makes it difficult to
light the burner with the knob set to maxi-
mum, set the knob to minimum and repeat
the operation.
CHOICE OF THE BURNER
On the control panel, near every knob the-
re is a diagram that indicates which burner
is controlled by that knob.
The suitable burner must be chosen ac-
cording to the diameter and the capacity
symbol
used.
As an indication, the burners and the pots
must be used in the following way:
DIAMETERS OF PANS WHICH MAY BE
BURNERS
Auxliliary
Semi-rapid
Rapid
Triple-ring
do not use pans with concave or convex
bases
It is important that the diameter of the pot
be suitable to the potentiality of the burner
so as not to compromise the high output
of the burners and therefore energy waste.
A small pot on a large burner does not give
you a boiling point in a shorter amount of
time since the capacity of heat absorption
of a liquid mass depends on the volume
and the surface of the pot.
